I signed a 13 month lease in Dec. of 2017, and have been loving the property and my unit ever since. The property is old...built in 1965, so there will be natural issues with wear and tear; however, they have the best most responsive maintenance team I've ever seen. It is a quiet, friendly, and diverse community. It doesn't have all the amenities you'll find at other newer places, but that wasn't what I was looking for. I truly believe this a one-of-a-kind community that can't be beat in value.
Rachelle, the Property Manager, is awesome (and a flirt, ha!) and knows everyone on the property by name. She always has a smile on her face and makes it a point to talk with everyone who comes into the office, even if she is busy. She is firm, but very fair. Any negativity towards her or the property is misleading and makes me question their review because they couldn't get away with what they wanted, so they got mad and blamed Rachelle. False!
The owners put a lot money into the renovations, and made the place stunning FOR THE TENANTS (not as an excuse to bump rents and get more money). They even won awards for the renovations. Not every unit comes with a washer/dryer, but the laundry facility is free of charge, which is the first time I've ever seen that implemented. If you lease with Marquee Uptown, you won't regret it. I can promise that. I've had nothing but a stellar positive experience living here. I wish I could release my unit, but will be moving out for personal reasons.
Utilities are on a master system, and is shared by everyone. I only pay one check a month, and they take care of the rest. It can be a little difficult during those wonky months where the weather is in the mid 60s, as the heat will not kick in unless the ambient temp is below 60 degrees. Otherwise it will just blow cool air.
If I had any critique is that the windows are single pane, so it's very easy to hear outside noise. I live on the side facing McCue St, so I hear every wannabe drag racer rev their engines as they drive down McCue. read more
